      Officially only Edge is supported, but Chrome is tolerated. It’s a full MS environment.

        Click on every single ad and banner, click “I agree” on every pop-up. Make that computer hate it’s life!

        Same here. The worst thing is in their justification of disallowing Firefox they listed that it was not an enterprise application. I get that it might be extra effort to support it but don’t list something factually untrue as a lame cop out for why you don’t want to.

          Was told it wouldn’t be allowed because you couldn’t restrict it using GPO… Until I told them they could absolutely apply those restrictions using GPO and even provided the ADMX templates.

      Yeah. What company wouldn’t allow it?

      When I was working for an ad exchange, everyone had adblock installed in their browsers, I found that quite ironic.

        My IT department uninstalled it from my work laptop, and told me not to reinstall it because - and I quote: “The only browser IT officially supports is Google Chrome.”

        What makes this doubly stupid is that I’m a web developer. I literally can’t test my stuff on another browser…

        I would argue it’s a security issue not to have any ad blocking. Many scams online start with popups or fake ads.

        So if you get the opportunity to talk to IT that’s what I would mention.

        I used to develop ads (non intrusive things for home depot or go RVing) and i used ad blockers. When testing, i would just run private browsing with plugins disabled…
